Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To explore clinical efficacy of vancomycin-loaded antibiotic bone cement combined with induced membrane grafting for the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers(DFU).
METHODS:Totally 68 DFU patients treated with bone cement combined with induced membrane grafting from November 2019 to November 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, including 37 males and 31 females, aged from 51 to 79 years old with an average of (63.63±7.85) years old;47 patients on the right side and 21 patients on the left side;28 patients with grade 2, 31 patients with were grade 3, and 9 patients with grade 4 according to Wagner's grades;the diameter of the wound ranged from 20.40 to 96.99 mm with an average of (59.67±23.26) mm. The time of wound healing, the number of operations, the survival of postoperative skin grafting, the number of postoperative recurrence and the rate of amputation were observed.
RESULTS:All 68 patients were followed up for 12 to 18 months with an average of (15.06±2.12) months. The wound healing time ranged from 42 to 65 d with an average of (51.50±7.24) d, the numbers of operation ranged from 2 to 3 with an average of (2.25±0.44) times. All skin grafts were survived well after operation, without recurrence and amputation cases.
CONCLUSION:Vancomycin-containing antibiotic bone cement combined with induced membrane grafting is effective in treating DFU, and the operation is simple and reliable.
